Interesting article here about encouraging 'parental engagement'.

What do you think?

It can still be answered by saying, 'Not much. What's for tea?' :o

Haha very true!

Yeah, but the answer will still be "Nothing", won't it? I could have asked DS anything when he came out of school, and would have got just the same blank shrug
